Abstract:

Papers of social activist Pat Quinn that document his anti-Vietnam War and labor efforts in Madison, Wisconsin, between 1968 and 1974. The papers concern his involvement with the Madison Area Peace Action Council, the Madison Committee to End the War in Vietnam, and Local 171 of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, and consist of correspondence, leaflets, press releases, printed matter, and clippings. On tape is a 1974 interview, the transcript of which is also in the collection, that concerns his assessment of the origins and growth of the anti-war movement in Madison. The photographs document a 1973 Memorial Day anti-war march sponsored by the Madison Area Peace Action Council.
